:28:06
Long live Rollan!
:28:07
Thanks, my friend.
Absinthe all around.
:28:11
Gentlemen, this is serious.
:28:16
The wave of emotion sweeping the country
helps us by underscoring one point:
:28:20
We need a leader.
- A dictator.
:28:23
Dictatorship, never.
:28:26
The general must be named president.
- Later, we'll see.
:28:30
- But will he accept?
- And what about Paulette?
:28:33
The general seemed smitten
by that Polish woman.
:28:36
We mustn't waste this opportunity.
:28:38
Poor Vidauban.
:28:39
The people are convinced only one man
can avenge the insult: Rollan.
:28:43
- Sadly, the general is out on maneuvers.
- It's his job.
:28:46
Sometimes a man must choose between
professional duty and civic duty.
:28:50
Maneuvers have their benefits:
Paulette's not there.
:28:53
Since Bastille Day, the general seems
preoccupied by the Polish lady.
:28:58
- Let's go see him.
- He'll think we're out for ourselves.
:29:01
I ask so little:
ambassador to the Vatican.
:29:05
"Poor Vidauban."
:29:08
Henri alone can persuade Rollan.
:29:10
I assure you that the Polish lady -
:29:14
THE VIDAUBAN AFFAIR -
ARMY IS PLACED ON ALERT
:29:23
- You've lost weight, sir.
- I'll stop by my tailor's.
:29:29
Moths!
:29:31
It should be taken out more often.
:29:34
Sylvestre!
:29:35
Sorry, sir.
:29:45
Is Henri in?
:29:49
The count
will be delighted to see you.
:29:55
- You're going? I was sure.
- What's the hurry?
:29:57
A present for you. When you're bored
on bivouac, it'll be something to read.
